I just installed syslog-ng on a Solaris 9 (SPARC) server. It will not log anything to the console nor to /var/adm/messages. Does anyone have any idea of what I am doing wrong?

There's a working config posted here: http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/solaris-conf.txt ...and the source line looks different in the copy on the FAQ site that what you posted. That's taken from a syslog-ng.conf I used on solaris at a past job. Here's what I use on Solaris currently: source local { sun-streams("/dev/log"); udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514)); internal(); }; ...and it's working right now on at least a couple hundred boxes. -- Nate Security-wise, NT is a server with a "Kick me" sign taped to it.
